Custom Brushed and Polished Stainless Steel Table Legs and Bases

Metal table legs and bases can be used for tops of all shapes, sizes, and materials. The bases can be used as traditional table bases, pedestal applications, or trestle applications, and work for dining table, desks, coffee tables, benches, side tables, and just about every other application. The legs offer the versatility of being able to choose the exact mounting location on site, and can be adjusted later on. They are also more universal in that they can be used on tops of varying lengths. One unique feature with our metal table bases is that they can all be used for tabletops of all materials, including wood, stone, and even glass as they are fully welded, single piece builds requiring no assembly. Our stainless steel table legs are not free-standing, and rely on the connection to the tabletop to maintain stability, so they cannot be used with glass tops.

Why ECon Welding?

We initially entered into the market of metal table legs and bases offering the "Best price guarantee" and focused heavily on volume over quality. This is the approach a majority of our competition still aims for; However early on we decided to transition to quality over quantity, making high quality pieces that we could be proud of. We know we're not the cheapest option, but we also strongly believe that you get what you pay for. We are not marking up our product prices simply for the brand name. Our staff is highly skilled, and takes great pride in the products they make. All of the metalworking here is done from start to finish by the same fabricator, as opposed to being passed off from person to person down an assembly line. This method instills a sense of pride in our staff, so that when a product is completed, they can look at it and be proud of the work they have done. This allows for our fabricators to pay extra attention to the minor details and provide a product of impeccable quality.

We have well over 100 years of combined experience building metal table legs and bases and as such we know what's important when it comes to the various designs and builds. We don't offer products with a limited weight capacity. As long as they are sized appropriately, all of our products can withstand the weight of the heaviest of tabletops. Our products are fully welded and therefore have no nuts and bolts that will loosen over time causing the table to sway and wobble. You are so confident in our product offerings, we offer a Lifetime Satisfaction Guarantee on all of our products. You can rest assured that when you buy a set of metal table legs from ECon Welding, you are buying a generational, heirloom quality piece of furniture that will be a conversational piece for decades to come.

Quick Sizing Guide for Stainless Steel Table Bases and Legs

Width

A quick, general rule of thumb is to take the overall width of your tabletop, and subtract 24" to get the width of your table base. Make sure the legs do not go below these minimum widths:

Dining height - 20" width minimum
Counter height - 24" width minimum
Bar height - 28" width minimum

For any stainless steel table base designs that taper in at the floor, add 6-8" to the above minimums for the minimum base width since the width is measured at the widest point of the base, at the top, and they taper in 6" to 8" at the floor.

Length (if applicable)

For base styles that specify both width and length, the length of the base will depend on how much overhang your tabletop can support. As a general rule of thumb, follow the below max overhang recommendations for the below top materials:

Wood Top - Top length minus 36"
Stone Top - Top length minus 24"
Glass Top - Top length minus 24"

Top thicknesses and strengths vary, so it is ALWAYS best to get a recommendation from the fabricator of your tabletop for overhang allowances. Also make sure the length of the base does not drop below the above width minimums for stability.

Height

Dining height is finished at 30", so subtract the thickness of your tabletop from 30" to get the height of the table base. Round down to the nearest inch to account for the included leveling feet.
For counter height, subtract the thickness of the tabletop from 36".
For bar height, subtract the thickness of the top from 42".

Coffee tables, side tables, and bench bases

You typically want the width of the base for smaller sized builds to be just a couple inches smaller than the top.
Benches typically have a finished height that is 12" less than the table height. So subtract the thickness of the top from this measurement to get the height of the base.
Coffee tables typically have a finished height equal to, or a couple inches below the surrounding seating height. Usually around 18" to 20" tall.
Side tables typically have a finished height equal to, or slightly below the surrounding arm rest height of nearby seating.

Tubing Size

1" tube - Reserved for small, lightweight tables, such as side tables or coffee tables
1.5" or 1x2 rectangular tube - Suitable for smaller tables, dining tables with a minimalistic style, or bench bases
2" or 1x3 rectangular tube - Most common size material, suitable for most applications
3" or 2x3 rectangular tube - Suitable for heavier or larger tabletops, or where a more prominent look is desired for the stainless steel table base
4" or 2x4 rectangular tube - Gives a massive look to the table base, suitable for the heaviest and largest of tabletops.
